What Is Cocaine Anonymous

Cocaine Anonymous is a gathering of people from all walks of life with the common problem of cocaine addiction who meet to share and encourage each other on their recovery journey from addiction.

Interacting with people in a language they are familiar with is the best method. Those who belong to Cocaine Anonymous are all addicts who are recovering and remain sober by working together with other people. Cocaine Anonymous individuals originate from different social, ethnic, monetary and religious foundations, yet what they have similar is addiction.

The main prerequisite for enrolment is a craving to quit utilizing cocaine and all other mind-altering substances.

Ready to Get Help?

All are welcome who are fighting cocaine and other substances including alcohol and other mind altering drugs. There are no membership fees; Cocaine Anonymous is completely self-supporting via our own donations.

Coffee, rentals, materials and other services offered to struggling addicts are covered by Cocaine Anonymous asking for voluntary contributions at meetings. There is no pressure to contribute especially for the new members if they are not in a position to give. They don't acknowledge gifts from associations or people outside the cooperation.

Cocaine Anonymous are not in partnership with any denomination, institution, sect, political group or organisation. We don't wish to participate in any contention and we neither underwrite nor contradict any causes.

To maintain integrity and stay away from controversy, Cocaine Anonymous do not align with any outside groups. Cocaine Anonymous is a spiritual programme but does not identify itself with any religious group. Cocaine Anonymous members are able to define their own spirituality in the way that best helps them. While each member is free to have opinions of their own, Cocaine Anonymous does not officially have an opinion on outside issues. They are not connected with any rehabilitations, hospitals or recovery houses, though several of these places do refer people to Cocaine Anonymous to keep them sober.

The purpose for which Cocaine Anonymous was formed was to help members stop cocaine and other addictive substances and remain clean while encouraging others to achieve the same success.

The sole function of Cocaine Anonymous is to provide recovery to those who are battling with addiction. Individual experience has demonstrated that the best approach to achieve and keep up sobriety is to work with others experiencing a similar illness.

Cocaine Anonymous employ the 12 steps of recovery as it has already been shown that this recovery programme is effective.

The Goal

Cocaine Anonymous is only concerned with the individual recovery and on-going sobriety of the individual substance addict who approaches them for assistance. Although some members participate in things like drug addiction research, medical or psychiatric treatment, drug education, or propaganda on an individual level, Cocaine Anonymous does not participate as a fellowship.

Anyone in trouble with cocaine, "crack" cocaine or any other substance of abuse and needs help are welcome to Cocaine Anonymous. There is no levy or charges for membership. Expenses are paid through voluntary contributions from Cocaine Anonymous members and they do not accept outside help.

The recovery programme was modified from the Alcoholics Anonymous programme which was devised in 1935. Cocaine Anonymous uses the Twelve Step Recovery Method crafted by AA that encourages serving others to help yourself in the battle for sobriety. It is believed that a person with experience is better placed to understand and empathise with one struggling with the same addiction.

The fact that a person has made a recovery from his/her addiction, and is openly sharing this experience with the next individual, is a strong message for a person who's desperately looking for a solution for his/her own addiction. The closeness that results in members of Cocaine Anonymous is very healthy, cutting across social differences.

To further their fellowship, Cocaine Anonymous has regular meetings where new members can find them and get help with the answers they're looking for.
